How this area has changed
Typical prices for flats, now and in years gone by. The twelve months to August 2026 against the same twelve months back then.
| Area | Now | 5 years ago | 10 years ago | 15 years ago | 20 years ago |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tower View | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales |
| Postcode sector BA11 5 | – | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | Not enough sales | £111,090 |
| Mendip | – | £147,000 | £125,000 | £117,500 | £110,500 |
The typical price is the middle sale of the twelve months, not the average, so one very dear or very cheap sale cannot pull it about. Standard sales only. A figure needs at least 15 sales behind it; with fewer, it says so.
How homes change hands in BA11 5, over the last five years (362 sales):
- What sells: 39% detached, 23% terraced, 22% semi-detached, 10% other, 6% flats.
- 11% sold leasehold, and 8% were new builds.
- 73 sales in the last twelve months, against 117 in the same twelve months five years ago.
